Good Morning All I am a Retired US Merchant Marine Captain. After graduation from Maine Maritime Academy I spent the next 38 years sailing on Large US Merchant Ships delivery Goods around the World.

My Renderosity User Name is "Mariner"

I generally preferred to be called DR, my 1st and 2nd Initials and also for Dead_Reckoning, "The Most Basic Form of Navigation" Back in 1996, when I signed up for that new fangled World Wide Web on a cold damp blustery day in November, I thought that was a great User Name. Considering I had to learn to Navigate the Globe. When I graduated from MMA in 1972 very few hand held calculators around. We still used Logs, AntiLogs etc......... My 1st Computer class was 1969 while at MMA. IBM Selectric for Keyboard. Using Fortran IV.

:0) - The late Don Tatro, Creepy The Clown, got me hooked on Computer Graphics. Usenet Groups for Poser and Bryce. So My Avocation, Addiction, to 3DG began with Poser 3 and Bryce. Going on 2 decades later, still addicted to 3DG.

My Favorite Choice is Poser, but I can also work with Daz Studio. Used Bryce for a long time, sort of dropped by the wayside lately.

Father of 2 daughters and Grandfather of 3 grandsons and 1 granddaughter. :0) 4th grandson is being launched in August.

Cheers DR

Hello digital. :0) - I recognize that monica as well. I have been drifting about the Poser/Bryce sites for a long time now. In the forums here, Daz and RDNA. Was a tester @RDNA until Daz swallowed them up.

I think Michael On CD was my 1st purchase.
